Abstract or Brief Description

The issue is not 'imperialism' or 'globalism' but the very nature of capitalism. Capitalism has changed. It’s time to change our theories.

From the KPFA website:"Since September 11th and the unleashing of the US invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan, many progressives have concluded that we’re in a new political era – an age of empire. Radical thinker Jonathan Nitzan, however, has a different take on how war and instability are profitable for capitalism."
